THE PROLIFERATION OF ZELENSKYS
THE PROLIFERATION OF ZELENSKYS
...and the response of Maria Zakharova, spokesperson of the Russian Foreign Ministry, to the statements of Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili.
You may have read/heard about the recent Parliamentary elections in Georgia last weekend: as reported by AP News, citing the Georgian Central Election Commission, the ruling Georgian Dream party won with ~55% of the votes, yet the Georgian President Salome Zourabichvili, but born and raised in France, refused to recognize the electoral results and, standing alongside the leaders of the opposition parties, called for people to take to the streets to protest what she called a “total falsification”, stated the following:
This election cannot be recognized, because it is the recognition of Russia’s intrusion here, Georgia’s subordination to Russia.
…without providing any evidence of Russian interference in the elections.
At almost the same time, in a joint statement the chairmen of the committees on foreign and European affairs of Germany, Lithuania, Estonia, Latvia, Ireland, Ukraine, Poland, Canada stated that “the 26 October parliamentary elections in Georgia were neither free nor fair, and therefore the European Union should not recognise the results” of the Parliamentary elections in Georgia, as reported by Ukrainska Pravda, while former British Prime Minister Boris Johnson, who backed and still supports the Ukronazis and military junta in Kiev (Ukraine), tweeted the following on X:
Add to the above the following statement (or shall I say “threat”?) by Matthew Miller, spokesman of the US State Department (emphasis mine):
We have consistently urged the Georgian Government this year to walk back its anti-democratic actions and return to its Euro-Atlantic path. We do not rule out further consequences if the Georgian Government’s direction does not change.
Very “democratic”!
As I feared in an article that I wrote back in May 2024 (link below), when the Georgian Parliament approved the “Foreign Agents” bill to counter European and American influence through their NGOs (Non-Governmental Organizations), Georgia may be again on the brink of a new colour revolution, like Euromaidan (the coup staged by CIA in Ukraine in 2014):
What follow is my English translation of an excellent post (in two parts: 1 and 2) by Pino Cabras, Italian politician and journalist (a real one, not a “presstitute”), about the recent elections in Georgia and Moldova (I covered the recent EU referendum in this country here), published on his Telegram channel on Monday 28th October 2024. (Footnote and emphasis mine).
THE PROLIFERATION OF ZELENSKYS
The elections in Georgia, as well as those in Moldova a few days ago, carry far more weight than the two post-Soviet countries' demographically modest ones. And as is more and more often the case, nothing - but really nothing - of the Western media's narrative serves to understand the truth of the facts. They present everything as a clash between Western-style liberal democracy on one side and pro-Russian autocrats on the other. All spiced up with extreme manipulations of historical events and political chronicles.
The people they call “pro-Russian” are actually representatives of political formations that for a long time - until recently - supported a rapprochement of their countries with the Western supranational institutions, the EU and NATO. Only an important change has taken place. The problem that now makes the Western chancelleries squawk like plucked eagles is that these personalities have now realised the immense rip-off and refuse to turn this rapprochement into a totally subservient and dependent vassalage to the West, entirely aimed at opening another war front against Russia that would have a destructive price for their countries. They have realised the frightening size of the abyss and understand that the pikers from the West are taking them right there.
The Georgian Prime Minister and fresh election winner, Irakli Kobakhidze, simply does not want to be like Ukrainian President Volodymir Zelensky: he does not want to turn his country into a hostile, Russophobic platform of permanent military provocation and systematic sabotage of peace. He does not want his population to be used as ‘consumables’ for the war projects of Washington, London and Brussels.
Ditto for Moldova's presidential candidate, Alexandr Stoianoglo.
Neither Kobakhidze nor Stoianoglo wants to follow in the tragic footsteps of Kiev.
Instead, those who want to be Zelensky are the two women presidents, both with citizenship from Western countries, Salomé Zourabichvili in Georgia (master's degree at Columbia University, student of Zbigniew Brzezinski), Maia Sandu in Moldova (master's degree at Harvard and consultancy at the World Bank). They are indeed two puppets willing to lead the umpteenth “Colour Revolution” at the price of a civil war in order to impose an agenda entirely subservient to the belligerent NATO-EU combination and willing to demonise, to delegitimise at root political opponents assimilated into the role of “puppets of Moscow”.
On 23rd May 2024, European commissioner Olivér Várhelyi threatened Kobakhidze in mafia-like tones [I briefly covered this here], foreshadowing the possibility of him suffering an attack like the one suffered by another target disliked by Brussels, Slovak Prime Minister Robert Fico [see my article on this here]. Naturally, the local media call a Georgian law “Russian law”, which - just as Western countries do, but in Tblisi in a much milder way - wants to prevent national politics from being influenced by direct foreign funding of local organisations. The West demands blind obedience and total sacrifice of national interests. Not since the time of the fable of the wolf and the lamb have such brazen demands been heard: but today's West is now the empire of arrogance cloaked in hypocrisy and all countries adjust accordingly. The wooden tongue of democratic values and human rights declined by the exporters of democracy only appeals to parts of the elite who want the miserable benefits of the classical comprador1 bourgeoisie while their country is being sold out to the masters of the stock exchanges and their henchmen.
There are now more and more “border” countries, “hanging in the balance”, which find themselves, against their will, in the middle of the telluric faults of the new balances (think of Serbia, but there are many others). They find themselves having to choose whether to join these new (still incomplete and contradictory, but extremely attractive and dynamic) balances of the expanding BRICS world, or to remain absorbed by the totalitarian twist of today's Atlanticism. They have therefore entered a dramatic era of new turbulence ready to merge into a single global war front. The front passes through their respective societies with opposing and incommunicado social and political blocs, with the Atlanticist elite ready to take everyone to war.
If a political division of this kind takes hold even in the US, where the blocs face elections ready to delegitimise each other, it is no wonder that the phenomenon is spreading to all those places where the hegemony of the dollar and its vassals is creaking under material facts and powerful interests, while planetary strategic and economic alternatives are being prepared that are the typical nightmare of an empire in decline, as is that of the Anglo-Saxon thalassocracies.
On Sunday 27th October 2024 Maria Zakharova, spokeswoman for the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Russian Federation, published the following posts (1 and 2), originally in Russian, on her Telegram channel in response to Zurabishvili’s statement (all formatting original):
Salome Zurabishvili.
I first met this Georgian politician in August 2005 at the celebration of the 1000th anniversary of Kazan. At the time, she was head of the Georgian Ministry of Foreign Affairs. Bright and emotionally charged, Zurabishvili was the centre of attention and remembered by many.
Years have passed. Today, when reading the statements of the President of Georgia, I involuntarily recall the impressions of the past years and catch myself thinking about the obvious bias of her position on the key issue of the direction and algorithm of development of the Georgian statehood.
The parliamentary elections that took place ended with the victory of the ruling Georgian Dream. However, the influence of the opposition remains tangible. It is now up to the key political figures to decide whether Georgia will follow the path of mutually respectful relations within the country, or whether it will descend into the well-known abyss of street clashes.
Zurabishvili: “I do not recognise these elections (...) This is the same as recognising Russia's entry here, Georgia's subordination to Russia. Our ancestors did not live for this and we will not accept it. No one can take away Georgia's European future”.
As they say, at first I wanted to keep silent. But since our country has been touched, I will answer 👇
Washington has just taken away the European Union's “European future” by depriving it of a stable resource supply, collapsing its economy and poaching its business leaders, and before that - by flooding it with illegal migrants who have poured into Europe by the millions because of American adventures in the Middle East and North Africa.
Therefore, to believe that the EU can bestow a “European future” on anyone else is simply foolish.
Deprivation of the future is deprivation of independence and national interests. As long as countries and peoples think independently, and not unconditionally follow the orders of Washington curators, they have a future.
By the way, I have a question for Zurabishvili: how is the Georgian future worse than the European one? Georgia, I remind a French citizen, is older than France.
After all, even your cousin, French intellectual and politician Hélène Carrère d'Ancoss - one of the sponsors and probably authors of the Maastricht Treaty of the European Union and a great friend of Russia - was disappointed in the EU.
Towards the end of her life she wrote: “...Europe has already grown too big. It will not be a viable entity. Russia has its own place in the world, its own face, it is a big European power. Russia is a country of a different scale. Why should it join some authoritarian organisation? Just for the sake of having its own Russian commissioner in the EU, for example, like the one from Croatia? Russia does not need this at all”.
Finally, yesterday, Monday 28th October 2024, Dmitry Medvedev, deputy chairman of the Security Council of the Russian Federation, tweeted the following statement on X:
I cannot argue with that!
Well, well! Will we have to send a Victoria Nuland with pastries and snipers to Tbilisi for a new Maidan? As for these modern-day Amazons, infiltrated foreign agents, isn’t it time they were consigned to the dustbins of history?
I congratulate the Georgians for their right decision to choose their country ! I can only protect them from the nest of snakes in Brussels, only harm, breach of faith and subjugation can be expected from them, you Georgians only have the fate of being a thorn under the nails of the Russians and for them the price that must be paid is that Georgia will be destroyed and all the men killed. look at Ukraine as an example! And what can you expect from the "educated" West (when there was already a flourishing cultural life in Georgia thousands of years ago, in Western Europe they dug the ground with sticks on their backs with dirty rags! ), well remember the old saying "Timeo Danaos et dona ferentes" ! Because this was also the beginning of the destruction of Troy, they accepted the deadly gift of the treacherous Greeks!
